Christmas fun: fact 3

The Christmas card is still very much at the heart of the festive season according to new research from Royal Mail.

The study sees almost 8 in 10 (77%) UK adults declare that giving Christmas cards is their preferred way of spreading festive cheer. This trumps festive well wishes in person (62%) or by forms of digital communication (text 34%, WhatsApp 21% or Facebook message 26%).

More than six in 10 (64%) people also prefer to receive a Christmas card over any other form of festive greeting. By contrast, social media greetings scored fairly low on the scale (4%), as did text message (3%) and face to face well wishes (19%).

Over one billion Christmas cards purchased last year.
